Oregon Ska Page


April 9, 2001:
I'm home sick from work today, so I thought I'd try and update these pages a bit. I just want thank all of you who have been checking out this page for the last several years. Without all of your support, I wouldn't still be doing these pages. It's weird to think that I've been doing these pages for almost six years! If you see any errors on this page, or any info that needs to be updated, please email me.


June 23, 2000:
Would you like to join my mailing list? If so, fill out the form and you'll be set.


June 21, 2000:
The blue Vespa that had been stolen has been found. Thanks to whomever "found" it in their backyard and called the police.


May 23, 2000:
Important!! A blue Vespa P125 came up missing yesterday in Eugene. We'd really like to see it returned to its owner. If you see it around, please let me know!


April 7, 2000:
If you are on my mailing list, there will not be one sent out this month. I'm starting up a new mailing list (instead of using my hack! :)). And now the list is back open for whomever wants to join it! Keep in mind that this is an announcement only list, which means that I'm the only one that can post to it. If you're new to my list "Ground Zero," I basically send out an email around the beginning of the month which contains concert dates and news. If you would like to join the list, go to June 23rd and follow the directions.

If you haven't noticed, I've been doing a lot of minor changes to the pages. I transferred all the archived concerts to the new format. I've removed the index graphic and changed it to text. Since I've been using some funky fonts that you may not have, please download the following fonts and save them in the proper directory (shift+right click): Kashmir.ttf, Totem.ttf and Curlz___.ttf. Since I have changed over to a new server, I have noticed a problem, the Guestbook now does not work. I'm working on getting the script working again. When I was changing over to the new server, I also forgot to change the calendar to March. Sorry about that. By the way, for those of you who don't know La Luna is going to reopen as The Paradigm. I'm not sure what kind of shows they will be holding there, but I'll keep you all informed. I'm also going to set the mailing list back up so that people can join it again. I've got a lot more goodies planned: a few pictures, links to videos, message board, etc., etc.... By the way, these pages will work best if you are using Netscape 4.0+. I haven't tested them on other browsers, so hopefully they will look ok. Let me know if you find any problems.


February 11, 2000:
Well, the day has finally come that I have to get a new account and server for the web pages. After trying to figure out which company to go with, I just decided to go with a local one. Hopefully my pages will be here for a LONG time! I had some troubles transfering files, so if you find any errors with any of the pages, please let me know.


December 26, 1999:

Hey everyone, I'm back! Sorry for not updating the calendar in a while. I've been in Italy for the last six weeks. Everything got rushed right before I left so I didn't get a chance to update the calendar or leave a note to say I wouldn't be around. I have a couple hundred pieces of mail to sort thru, so if you wrote me at all it might take me a while to get to it. The plane ride back sucked. Damn you Floyd! I guess it doesn't help that I have a head cold! Anyway, I'll get things updated as I get back into the routine and all. -Chris.


By the way, I picked up the new Madness single "Lovestruck." It's an enhanced CD. "Lovestruck" is very much like Madness older stuff. It's really good.

London Records is going to rerelease three of the English Beat's albums: I Just Can't Stop It, Wha'ppen', and Special Beat Service. Follow the previous link for more information.


June 12, 1999:
After already releasing a live album this year, Madness is working on a new studio album. Check out these links for more information:

I have been wanting to update these pages, but I never had the chance. Over the past month I've been slowly updating them and I am finally finished! Hopefully this layout will be smoother and not look as cluttered. The index on the left will have the following information on their respecitve pages:

Welcome The main index page. I'll put any new news into this area.
Local Bands Information on bands mainly from Oregon, but there are some other Northwest bands on there
Local Links Links to zines, other Northwest pages, and anything I feel is relevant to the Oregon scene
Calendar A list of ska and oi! concerts around Oregon. I throw in a few punk shows occasionally. This page has one main update near the beginning of the month and then I'll add shows to it as needed. There is also a link to the archive of calendars here
Radio Oregon radio stations that have ska radio shows
Merchandise This page will contain information on local labels and the albums they have produced. I will also try to list all the albums out by Oregon bands
Other Links Links to various other ska, punk and skinhead related web sites
